Francie 6,368 Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 well done jon and the chillie plants look healthy mate Cheers mate The missus grew a couple of these last year - the plants gave loads of chillies. .... Their citrus flavour goes nice with salads or cooked. ...... I just wish they'd hurry up now How long do they take mate, from seed to harvest?I think these ones take a couple of months so, they'll hopefully be ready end of July/start of August. That long mate, do they grow big? Do you have them inside or outside? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We start them off indoors, then outside, in of those plastic zip-up greenhouse things, then they're outside for the last 4-6 weeks. I've heard that they can grow up to 2mtrs tall - the biggest we had last year was around 4ft tall. You get a lot of chillies from them - they just seem to keep popping them out every time you pick some Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ginger beard 4,653 Posted June 1, 2017 Report Share Posted June 1, 2017 Not many will compare to his tho, gl puts some effort an prep into them. Got to be a closet queer imo mines burnt on the outside and raw in the middle. the dogs are the only things that eat it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
